USF Coach: No Swearing!

I can't see this being an effective policy
One immediate change from past seasons: first-year DT coach John Hendrick will not allow any profanity from the players.

Hendrick, an ordained minister, joined the Bulls' staff after a one-year stint at Division I-AA South Carolina State.
We wish Hendrick well, but count on this bit of news circulating to USF defensive line recruits from rival schools. Young men (er, um, most men) swear. A lot. Athletics is a warm environment for the uncouth mouth.

Attempts to curb profanity tend to be in vain and recruiting is the lifeblood of most successful college football programs.

Something has to give.
